Fulltimewanna.... When we started fulltiming years ago we surveyed Canadians staying in parks we visited in the winter down south. (non scientific...we just asked Canadians we talked to) In the first couple of years I'd say only about 10% or less filled out the 8840. (we have filled it out for the last 8 years) Since then more and more seem to fill it out but I'd guess that only about 50% of those we talk to who spend close to 180 days/yr fill it out. We still talk to a number who pay no attention to the 6 month rule and routinely stay longer and lots who workcamp in the USA for free sites.
